I work within the Marine Observation Systems (MOS) team, where I manage and quality-assure oceanographic data from instruments such as SmartBuoys, CTDs, RBRs, and Waveriders. My responsibilities include calibrating sensors, downloading and processing data, and leading QA workflows—particularly for SmartBuoy and CTD datasets. I regularly sail aboard the RV Cefas Endeavour, acting as Data Manager during SmartBuoy surveys, where I oversee water sampling and data collection.
My technical expertise spans MATLAB and R, which I use for hydrodynamic modelling, data processing, and data visualisation. I’ve developed scripts to calculate bed shear stress and conducted time-series analyses on paleoclimate datasets, building/adjusting shiny apps on R for data processing and data handling.
Beyond data, I’m involved in fieldwork and survey logistics, including logger downloads, sensor calibration, and small boat operations. I’ve received recognition for my contributions, including being named “Best Scientist on Board” during a recent survey. My development goals include advancing QA capabilities, mastering profiler data workflows, and expanding my deployment skills for instruments like SmartBuoys and RBR
